I was had advanced info on, and was using the blueprint book, and I scrolled (don't remember if I had shift pressed), and suddenly, all models and icons disappeared. Then, a few seconds later, the squares of color that had been still there (from adv. info) disappeared, then my screen went black (terrain vanished), except for a few green lines in the lower right corner, and my whole PC slowed WAY down. My controls seemed to work for a bit (audio was still running fine), but after about 15 seconds, the screen hadn't come back, and my PC froze. Following this, Factorio reported a crash. I AM running on a machine under the minimum specs (half the required RAM), this might be the issue - I looked at the log, but could not make heads or tails of the issue.
Sorry I can't give much more information about the crash. This being said, I do know that normally, doing this EXACT thing does not crash me. I always have adv. info on, and have been using the deconstruction planner and blueprint book a LOT. I don't know what caused it, but I've done this exact thing in the same place, and not crashed, so it was likely not solely related to this.

Unfortunately, the save was some time before the crash, because I have auto-save on 30-minutes, since a save takes almost 5 minutes on my disk, which is not great.

Re: [0.13.2] Crash Bug, Blueprint book?
I think you ran out or VRAM based on how you describe the error and on your hardware. Factorio officially requires a minimum of 512MB of graphics memory, your machine is not able to provide that.
Re: [0.13.2] Crash Bug, Blueprint book?
I figure it was that, but it said to post it, so I did.
I did wonder if it might be something else, because it normally only pulls 25% of my CPU (unless enemies agro - it pulls ~90% then) and an average of .5 Gb pretty constantly, and I've never had any issues before, however, I might NOT have had shift pressed and scrolled out a bunch. That would probably kill my little rig. I'll keep an eye out in the future, maybe do some testing.

The log file shows nothing suspicious and from the sounds of it you just overloaded your computer.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.
